Pre-Medical Studies (A.S.)


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Programs by School

At most baccalaureate degree granting transfer institutions, “pre-medicine” and similar “pre-professional” designations (pre-chiropractic medicine, pre-dentistry, pre-optometry, pre-osteopathic medicine, etc.) are not majors.  Any student attending Gainesville State College who plans to attend medical school or one of the other professional schools should plan to select a major in a regular degree program at the transfer institution according to his/her aptitudes, experiences and interests.

The Pre-Medical Studies Program at Gainesville State College, which leads to an Associate of Science Degree in General Studies, provides the student with flexibility in course selection and encourages the student to seek breadth of education through interdisciplinary study. It is the student’s responsibility to develop an appropriate program of study with the assistance of an Academic Advisor that identifies those courses that are required by the transfer institution, those courses that are needed to prepare the student for standardized admission tests, and those courses that are required for admission to the professional school of interest.
